Get your agreement for car services in writing: Auto Repair Contract

Whether you are paid by an individual or a company, the Auto Repair Contract is a step that should never be overlooked. You might decide to use this document because it offers the following benefits:

• Everyone knows when billing will occur.
• Roles and responsibilities are understood by all.
• A timeline is established.

Without this document, you and/or the car owner may face the following unwanted consequences: unrealistic expectations, delayed payments, lower service quality, vague timelines, and, not to mention, limited ability to demand a remedy if something were to go wrong.

The details needed for an Auto Repair Contract are listed below:

• Your client's full name and address.
• How much you will charge.
• Whether the agreement will be ongoing or for a specific period of time.
• What kind of services will be provided.

As expected, the agreement will also include standard legal language regarding the independent work relationship between the parties, the method(s) of dispute resolution, and indemnity. As you make your agreement, you will also be able to determine its state of jurisdiction. With the document tool, you have the ability to implement additional personalized edits as well.

The great news is that you won’t have to reinvent the wheel to get your agreement in writing. When using the document tools on Rocket Lawyer, you can draft Auto Repair Contracts with relative ease. Your contract is built section by section, so you can be confident it includes all the necessary information you'll need. Typically, given the level of customization, you might expect to pay a traditional lawyer a few hundred dollars, if not more, in fees.

If you have any hesitations about the process, you can always ask a Legal Pro. You’re also welcome to explore our full collection of contracts and other legal documents for businesses.
